Insulation for Floor Heating

Are you planning to heat a basement floor or an addition with a concrete slab subfloor? There’s a good chance that floor is extremely cold today, and while radiant floor heating will make a huge difference, the necessary shift in temperature may make for a slow heat-up time. Reduce this inconvenience by adding a layer of 6mm cork insulation between the slab and your heating element. You’ll see even more benefit when combined with a programmable thermostat that adjusts for the average startup time.
